    What kills me about having an Admin Abuse Forum is that players, via scripting, can do all those thing you say Admins can't do. i.e. spawning in weapons crates, taking control of a server, warping across maps, spawning in non-DayZ weapons and vehicle. Yet as soon as an Admin shut the server down, because kaos is going on inside the server he/she paid for, it becomes Admin abuse.

    I host a server, and every night, game play is ruined by people who come in with scripted weapons, or spawn in and suddenly have control of all the vehilces. Why doesn't DayZ find a way to stop the scripting, and maybe I wouldn't have to shut my server down when talking dogs and rabits show up. When whole towns start blowing up, or when one person spawns in and kills everyone in the server in a matter of second.

    Stop protecting the scripters and get the admins a better way to control the jerks in their servers

    You might be fine, but other admins are not. Some named "Hurricane" for instance didn't lock his server, but happily kicked anyone who entered. Started a thread about it here but it hasn't been approved in two weeks...

    I too hate scripters, but there are abusive admins who get almost the same advantage as scripters (minus the non-legit weapons)

    So, everyone is on a witch-hunt to see how many servers they can get shut down? How about us server admins start going into the cheat reporting sections and posting the GUIDs of hackers, dupers, ghosters, combat loggers, etc?

    How many of you whining ninnies who keep crying admin abuse will then be left to play the game?

    What's good for the goose is good for the gander, after all.

    Please do that! Died three times to a hacker today, one that teleported, one that had a skin you can't get and god mode, and a guy with as50 thermal.

    I am not on a witch-hunt for servers, but it's like hacking items if you can farm the spawns over and over again.

    then it is exactly what i posted..

    you probably have it installed. it just put the files a bit wrong

    "*\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta"

    Take the files that is in that folder, and copy them out into

    " *\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ "

    just dont copy the @DayZ folder, as that one in there will probably be 1.7.2.4 :)

    Actually you shouldn't do that... It installs fine, and to a right folder, but you want to launch it with

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe" -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -skipIntro -mod=@DayZ

    You need to add a non-steam shortcut if you want to launch it from steam and/or get Steam Overlay, there should be a "Launch arma 2 beta" shortcut on your arrowhead folder after installing the beta patch, add that to steam library and edit it, rename it to DayZ perhaps, change the Target to the line above and the "Start" field needs to be

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\

    and NOT C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta\

    That way you won't always have to copy the patch over just install it and play the game again, and steam won't restore it at any point etc.

    Own a microphone? 18+?

    PM me for mumble information.

    note: WE ARE NOT A CLAN, we are a group of survivors.

    The time difference since you(and maybe everyone else too?) are in US could be a little problem, I'll think about it but I'd prefer an EU group or group with mixed players.

    Hey, erm. This is a long shot but I think I remember you, were we surrounded by trees on a hill? You approached my team with a shotgun, you showed no fear... we knew you wouldn't initiate a fight 1v3 so I spoke to you and told you how to use Direct Chat... When you had that worked out, you said you needed bloodpack, we asked how much blood you had and you said 10,000; we explained that meat gives you 800 blood, we gave you some, you ate it, then we told you to be on your way after making sure you were ready to go on your way...

    Oh then you attracted some zombies that we killed and THEN we parted.

    Is this you? if so we'd be happy to have you play with us again.

    Add me on Skype: Heafmo

    Nope, was not me :) I was near Balota airstrip when I spotted a survivor and hit the ground, then I tried to make a move to get away of the are since I was unarmed, or only had a hatchet, but someone saw me and then there were three survivors approaching me and pointing their guns at me, one of them joked they need to execute me now ;) but then proceeded to tell me to run away, so I did.

    The past week I played A LOT more DayZ than before with my friend and got to do way more stuff and found better gear than ever before, but one thing I realised is that those damn bandits really are annoying. I've been killed maybe four or five times now for almost nothing, besides the times earlier, and it sucks. One death I can approve and another was because I started axing away this player who had just killed my friend for nothing, but the rest, no self-defense or nothing. I've not seen a single friendly survivor in the game, only a group of three that let me run away and live instead of jsut gunning me down.

    I want to get more in to this game, with an RP or non-RP clan of survivors that I could have at my back to kill those pesky bandits, and to help the newcomers of DayZ. It is a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.

    So long story short, if anyone would want to recruit me to an international(or finnish, I am from Finland) clan I'd be more than happy to join your lines. I would like the clan to have at least ten players, and it has to use Mumble (come on, it's way better than TeamSpeak) If your clan doesn't have VoIP at all, I have a server that I could maybe host YOUR Mumble in ;)
